Funny how Texas is really Mexico but they stole it and now won’t allow the natives to go home. Weird. And please do not even comment to me if you’re a foreigner, and that goes for white people who pretend like they were Americans.! U forced ur way into our lands and now u don’t want any competitors huh

idk why they wanna come to america. people get shot here just going grocery shopping or going to school. we get mass shootings on a weekly basis

YEA GO WHEREVER TF YALL WANNA GO THEY DO NOT RUN SHIT‼️ this is OUR LAND WE THE PEOPLE

Let these people have CNN headquarters, we all know nothing good or true is going on in there.

sad for these people.. Biden really screwed this up as well.. should have let so many in... We are going to have more trouble.

Born and raised in the USA and I am homeless wtf are these people thinking they gonna come hear and take what little we have left or are they going to get the Dream package from joe Biden . FJB.

It sucks they can't make their home countries home and think America is the answer. Meanwhile, America itself is going to sh-t, and it’s only a matter of time before the American people revolt. Ironically, some Americans choose to live abroad because they hate the system here. Get ready to be taxed and overcharged for every living expense. There is no mercy for any worker in the US.

People, you don’t think that all that is because of the policies abroad ? If you make it impossible for them to leave in their home country, where you think they are going ?In Haïti for example, look who this government chooses to support : »Ariel Henry ». A guy whom they accuse in the plot to kill our last elected president… You refuse for that country to have its army, insecurity everywhere , hunger etc where do you want them to go? Change foreign policies. Help countries get better and see if it will not be different. Everyone loves their home, everyone. Home is home.❤

The world is going through the same migrant shift at the same time. The same is happening in the UK immigrants coming to the UK expecting to reap all benefits just becasue. Meanwhile homelessness and lack of jobs for those who have lived here all their lives and the bottom of the list for basic housing. Adults with children living with parents not entitled to the government finding yet these people enter and are helped/ housed. It's no longer about race but principals. This world is annoying me!

Wtf hell nahhhh get the hell out of here if we tried that crap to Venezuela, any other country, America’s will be detained and placed in prison who do they think they are all these migrants coming over here, rushing into our United States like if all of us want to work to take care of them get the heck out of here with that craziness!!!! if we try to run into another country, that shit is dead I don’t see why we don’t do the same thing we don’t got the money and the taxes to be paying to put these people in prison…nor do we want them here. \nMigration is the Trojan horse in America that’s what’s going on they trying to overpopulate us and distinguish our finances to kill our country and our economy

Venezuelan people are going to be a heavy burden to the US, these people are the worse in all Latin America, please do not allow them into the country please !! ?????????????

Canada is going to put this people in jail

If these people in South America don't like what's going on in their own land, they need to vote out the trash and petition for change. Invading another country solves none of this.

These people literally have nothing to go back to besides crime and starvation

Had we ever wonder way are they running from there country wat really happening way so many people escaping or something else is coming wat it is hoping that we don't go the same way or might end up like them ???

People are suffering is the reason why they are going to other countries 99 percent of the time, they are human as you are. You aren't entitled to this earth more than anyone else to the haters!

close the border for good do what ever it take once and for all this is ridiculous how in the hell is this country supposed to be safe these people have no documentation we don’t even know if they’re gang members. The US government really needs to wake the hell up this country’s going downhill.

People need to go back to their countries stop comming here

We have such a porous border in Canada. Problem is Justin Trudeau and his pack of corrupt Liberals want more and more “refuges” not skilled....with an education coming into Canada. You see....people who vote Liberal are morons...the “free stuff” they get from the Liberals are paid for with more and more Liberal taxes. Liberal voters think Justin dips into a trust fund or something...yes Liberal voters are really that stupid....they don’t realize more Liberals mean more wasteful taxes. So Justin wants refugees...who he can put on welfare for their lives, become citizens, AND bring in dozens of their relatives to begin the process again....why because they vote Liberal in perpetuity. We are never going to break this cycle. Where is the line to emigrated to the United States.....oh, I’m educated with a masters degree. Not valued in Canada, because I was born here, and I’m white....I feel so ashamed!

I feel sorry to said this specialty because I’m a Mexican and I’m an inmigrant and I’m not going to generally it but centroamerican and South American people 99 percent of people are trashy people

Bruh. These people are running from a war torn country. I don't get why people are so pissed about these guys doing this. Sure it's illegal. Sure it uses resources. But uhh. It's our own governments fault for not using our taxes to pay for the things we need when we're in need. I could see the outrage if this was happening with people from other countries that have no constant violence going on. But these people are scared for their lives.

My best friend started her immigration process in 2017. She was finally green lit to come to America in 2019 after marrying her long time husband over in Europe and then getting the paperwork done here in the US during that time Covid hit, and when they closed all the borders, they stopped all of the immigration process to America meaning that she was stuck in Europe away from her husband for three years. Finally last year after making her go back through the process getting all of her paperwork re-done, paying another $5000 she was able to come to the US just last month she got the start of her paperwork for her green card to work here in the US and become a full US citizen. It’s been a long process. It infuriates me that people like that who are honest, hard-working people who want to come to the US and start a life after being married, proven to have jobs and want to pay taxes and support a system. That’s willing to take them in get held up because of people like this want to come here illegally Big cause of whatever the reasons are trying to circumvent and skip over the people who are trying their hardest to do it the right way in the first place, dust dragging the system further down.

All of these people has probably been promised off you make it over here will give you a free house car drivers license and a paycheck why don't they go to another country

People who think this is about Republicans vs Democrats don't have a clue and are just going with their biases. Obama deported more illegal immigrants than any other president (more than Trump I believe), Trump stiffened up the border, and Biden made measures to actually make it tougher for these Venezuelan immigrants to get into the US once the migrant herd was moving north. This is a result of Venezeula and their economic collapse. If it happened sooner, it would've happened during Trump's time. I'm sure once Biden is out and a republican is president (looks that way), they'll try it again. Even Mexico doesn't want them since they have their economic issues to deal with.

This has been going on for 2 years every day at multiple locations along the border FOX news has reporters there and do daily segments talking to people crossing over they show it all no holding back the sad and ugly parts the trash they leave behind the different wristbands they wear from the cartels they paid children without parents land owners who have had their lives threatened their livestock killed their property destroyed, deaths by drowning in the day and night rescues made in the dangerous places of the river, the count is up to 173 different countries of people crossing in many with no birth certificates or identification even Newsmax & OAN have reporters there there are many independent journalists trying to bring awareness to this from day one of Biden opening the border when he took office ????

This is a fact that JOE BIDEN is working with the CARTEL... HE TELLS ALL OF THESE PEOPLE TO COME TO THE BORDER BUT THEY ARE ONLY ACCEPTED IF THEY GO THROUGH POINTS OTHER THAN THE LEGAL ENTRY POINTS

Every since this has been allowed to occur we suddenly don’t have jobs in restaurants that allows people to work without citizenship or green card. They are taking those jobs speaking no English and being used and overworked. They are easier to deal with cause they barley complain. So people(americans) are being pushed out big time. They starting with the lowest pay . Lower than what Americans would accept. I completely understand that wall?? I can’t even take a vacation without a passport to the countries and I’m not planning on staying at all. We can’t go for a few days without documentation.. let alone pick up our whole lives and cross one of those borders without being rejected. So explain to me.. what gives them that right?

If people don't go through the legal way I would be using a rubber bullets and teargas flashbangs. \n\nTechnically you're not doing it to your own citizens so it'd be kind of legal

Yeah we barely got enough s*** here for ourselves we don't need a bunch of people coming here and take it at 2 we don't need competition for a resources I'm sorry but bad things are going around everywhere

This is the thing guys we are have the highest inflation ever in at least five decades, we have poor American citizens living on the streets homeless and with no food, we are going into the biggest recession in united states of America has ever seen since 2008, we have the highest interest rates in many years that we have ever seen and a lot of people are going to lose their jobs in the next at least 18 months, we have the worse health care system and people are getting sick and dying. \nTimes have changed unfortunately and this is year 2023, not 500 or 300 or 100 or even 50 years ago and there is no comparison.\nWe need to close our borders and take care of our own united states of America citizen first.\nLet's stop sending trillions of dollars in cash to other foreign countries like Ukraine and letting people illegally in our country. ?

Get the f**k out of my country with your illegal bullshit. I swear if our government provides for these people we need to go to war! Go get a freaking green card not that f**king hard

Go home and make your own country better, don't steal other people's achievement

​@Popeye Sailor you guys never seem to remember Obama doing that? You don't mind babies being separated from their womb or people being separated going to jail for political crimes

What people don’t know , is just how bad things have gotten in Venezuela ! I am reminding people how our democracy has been under attack! There’s is gone! Where would Americans go , if our country’s democracy is gone? Hmmm ? Think

Joe Biden and the Democrats once a reason this is happening who is going to pay for these people why taxes are high enough I can't afford to keep giving more and more taxes so I can feed and house f****** illegal immigrants better in my country illegally

These people were told, that they were going to get it after the fire at the immigration center in Mexico, where 39 people lost their lives, only to be taken back and this why these happened. It feels like it was done in purpose to feed the right wing narrative that there is a crisis at the border, when the real crisis is the system's lack of personal to processs their Asylum forms.

This is total bullshit. We the People want our borders closed. Illegal immigrants go back where you came from and go fix your damn country. Stay out of ours.

Sad reality is is those people aren’t gonna stop at your US borders they’re running straight through your country to Canada. We’re being overrun because Joe Biden. Donald Trump had your borders on lockdown there wasn’t any drugs even getting into your country. They were thinking about making drug labs in Canada to produce the drugs cause we weren’t even getting any drugs up here and I’m talking the government was going to make cocaine in Canada because Donald Trump had the friggin borders on lockdown they were gonna sell grams of Coke inside of our weed stores in Canada. It’s already happening in BC.

This is sad because everyone is looking for a home , and we need to stand fight in our own back yards and if you believe in god he will stand with you .\nIt’s not difficult to understand people are afraid of the corrupt government but the world is changing and corruption is going to find out it can get kick in the butt too and people taken there Countries back

What’s making them do this is my question, there has to be something going on thats triggered this level of desperation from so many people.

Their going to people's houses that voted for this

These people along with the ZOGS, and the whole DemonRat party cares nothing for the American people. These degenerate migrants are going to get everything free, while Americans paying the bill, these people are going to get free housing, free money, free vehicles, while American families are suffering.

During the 1930's media in various countries made immigrants and asylum seekers out to be this horrible thing and demonised them. This came after a huge recession in 1923, the Wall Street crash, and the subsequent dramatic rise of far right parties in various countries, specifically Italy, then Germany and Spain. \nFast-forward to modern times. 2008 saw another global recession. Once again politics swung massively to the right with countries like Italy (once again), Hungary, Austria, Poland and Sweden, voting in right wing governments, France ending in a run off that narrowly defeated the far right, Belgium and Spain looking likely to be heading into heavily right wing governments at the next elections, whilst the US and UK governments both saw their politics swinging far further in that direction, especially the UK right now whilst led by an unelected leader who is demonising people in ways that would make Trump look soft. One of themajor rallying calls: immigration. The way media report on this becomes increasingly demeaning and hateful. During the 1930's much of the European media and even as far as the UK was ramping up the scorn against the ever increasing influx of Jewish immigrants coming from Germany. Even into 1944 there was a vast amount of demonisation of them seeking asylum, despite the knowledge by this point that there were horrific conditions in camps where extermination was becoming ever more apparent. The Nazi German government in 1936 passed laws that enabled them to revoke citizenship and stripped away laws on human rights. It would be great to say that these poor souls who were being demonised in their own country were accepted into nations who could see what was going on and who wanted to help, but that just wasn't the way it went. Media played out as it is now, leading to rejection and a greater number of deaths as a result of this. The way the UK government is currently working, it actually sounds like the maxi government of the mid 30's during the time of the Nürnberg laws. \n \nThe world feels far smaller now with double the amount of people and with things like social media playing a huge role in the lives of many. The ease of access to people around the world has made issues seem to stretch to far more countries now, whereas back then it was a time of empires. I get that there will be many here who support Trump, many who support Biden, there will be Brit's who support Sunak and the rather vicious words of Suella Braverman, whilst others will be more on the side of Starmer (I'm well aware of all the other parties but they don't stand to gain as much). There will be French people backing Macron, whilst others back Le Pen. We could go through each country all the way to the battle between Fujimori and Castillo in Perú, and the stories are much the same, but how will history judge us when people look back to this time? Will it be another occasion where we demonised those trying to escape the horror of the place they had the bad luck to be born in whilst we were luckier? \n\nI know there is hardship everywhere. I'm struggling more than most and I know I can't keep living this way. However, I don't want to be a part of history people look back at and say ‘if only they did something to help prevent this.’. I would rather be a part of history people look back upon and say; ‘that was a boring time period where nothing important happened’. It's already too late for that. Instead I try to remember that, though I was born into a family who never really wanted me, I was lucky enough to be born into a country that could support me during the hardest times. When you look at immigrants, remember that every one of us has immigrants in our family tree somewhere.

Thank you democratic party. The democratic party has aloud this to happen. I say round them all up and send them back. Let them do it the right way not just run in and go on welfare and get free housing and health care. We can't take care of our own people how can we take care of millions of illegal immigrants? Just asking and saying

Let these people come through and put them on welfare automatic and help Europe but can’t even help us ndn people in America and when war starts want us to go fight your war

We have a process. Millions follow it. I see only a very horrible enforcement. Clean up venesueuela govt. They have resoutces. And if a honest govt people would stay. Its coming to mass warthog fly bys enforcing tge dmz. No one wants this! But one or two passes and over. Dont see this in other places. Put 1000 armed drones patrolling and just have a sit down with cartels who can stop this south. Their goal is sell americans dope and we already wink and look the othercway. The better we do the better they will andvthis is messing our economy. Not pushing dope etc but cats out of the bag aint going back so at least protect our borders. Putin could arm each of these invaders with bombs, poison etc andvthe damage they could do.... they dont love america. This is an invasion no different than WW2 . We could melt the border if we had the will. Freaky how weak usa is

It looks like a lot of black peoples going to be out of work?

6 billion dollars they said too much for the wall to protect our people, but over 100 billion to Ukrainian Mafia is not enough. Who is going to help us? We already need help.\nLook at poverty, homelessness, crime and on...\nWe are transitioning to a 3rd world country.

As a Hispanic that lives in the mentioned area these damn people need to go and do this kind of bullshit revolutions over in their country, in my opinion that was an invasion and invasions are repelled with force. Mexico is fed up with them as well ask any one in Mexico and they’ll tell you how they tear shit up anywhere they go

To all of you that just want to let them in.. America is hurting right now.. it’s both the left and rights fault.. to let these people in would be reckless and only hurt ourselves even more. Where will these people go ?? California?? Look there homeless population it’s up 20% from last year.. wtf do you think is going to happen.
